AI Technical Summary
Existing tadalafil formulations, particularly liquid suspensions, face challenges in achieving chemical and physical stability, sedimentation issues, and do not provide an in vitro dissolution profile equivalent to commercial solid formulations like Cialis® film-coated tablets, making them unsuitable for patients with swallowing difficulties and requiring alternative dosage forms.
A tadalafil pharmaceutical composition in the form of an aqueous oral suspension, comprising tadalafil, cyclodextrin, co-processed MCC-NaCMC, and xanthan gum, which ensures chemical and physical stability and an in vitro dissolution profile similar to Cialis® tablets, allowing for fixed-dose combinations with drugs like tamsulosin or dutasteride.
The composition provides a stable and effective oral suspension with a dissolution profile comparable to Cialis® tablets, facilitating easy administration and tailored dosages, enhancing therapeutic efficacy for conditions like erectile dysfunction and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
